    We all know that the rich wear personally tailored suits and so-on. But, what I think would be amazing is to be rich enough to wear a personally tailored t-shirt, or personally tailored socks. For women, I can’t imagine the joy of having a personally tailored bra that was built precisely to fit their exact body. That must exist at some level of wealth, but I just wonder how rich you have to be to justify that kind of spending.

    For most people, even when you find something that fits well, there are going to be compromises, like the shoulders might fit perfectly, but it’s just a bit too long, or a bit too tight. But, just imagine something simple like a T-shirt where instead of “medium” you get something that takes into account your torso’s length, your ribcage’s size, your shoulder’s width, your arm’s circumference, the size of your neck, and so-on.

      Tailors are pretty affordable. Anyone can take clothes into a tailor and get them tailored to their body shape. Idk if bras are able to be adjusted though.

        Sure, tailors are affordable, but can anybody really justify spending $80 for a tailored T-shirt? If you’re a multi-millionaire maybe you can, and maybe your T-shirts feel absolutely great as a result.
